The Premier League returns to the fold with another round of matches this weekend as Tottenham Hotspur lock horns with Unai Emery's impressive Aston Villa side at Villa Park on Saturday.
Aston Villa vs Tottenham Hotspur Preview
Aston Villa are currently in eighth place in the Premier League standings and have been impressive so far this season. The hosts slumped to a disappointing 1-0 defeat at the hands of Wolverhampton Wanderers in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, are in sixth place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best this season. The North London outfit edged Crystal Palace to a 1-0 victory last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
